There once was an app called Payce
Where (among others) you’d link your cards from Chase
It’s now a browser extension
So here’s a quick mention
Of something that now has no use case
Payce used to be an app where you’d link your payment card(s) and activate offers to earn cashback on in-store purchases. Its usefulness was limited seeing as they had low caps on earnings (e.g. $5 per month), but it could be some easy money for people buying gift cards as eligible retailers included Staples and/or Office Depot/OfficeMax (I forget which), CVS, Home Depot, etc.
I barely used it as transactions didn’t seem to always track and I only ever bothered linking one or two cards in the app. Still, I know some people used to enjoy earning dozens of dollars per month (perhaps more for those who scaled accounts), but that’s no more.
Payce announced that the other day that they were ending this card-linked program and are instead moving to being a shopping portal via a browser extension. Because we apparently don’t have enough of those in the world.
That extension has now gone live at paycepays.com. I haven’t linked to their site because I want to save you a few minutes of your life seeing as it would be a waste of your time. The rates they’re offering are embarrassingly low – so low that if Cashback Monitor adds Payce Pays to the list of portals they monitor, you’d likely never scroll down the page far enough to catch a glimpse of the miniscule returns you’d get.
For example:
- Ace Hardware – 0.7% cashback
- Banana Republic – 1.3% cashback
- Cabela’s – 1%
- Hot Topic – a whopping 0.3%
There’s a certain former president whose hands are larger than the cashback being offered by the misleadingly named PaycePays, so pour one out for the earnings from Payce’s previous incarnation as a company worth paying attention to.
are you saying this app is fake news
Sad! The cashback earned could’ve bought a nice cup of covfefe.
